Wildflowers - Fireweed Seeds

Fireweed is a pretty popular perennial and can be started from seeds. The seeds are tiny - just about like dust. They take some time to grow, but eventually grow into this beautiful plant that can be 5 feet tall. It is call fireweed because it can create large colonies of beautiful pink flowers in the wake of forest fires. The pink flowers eventually give way to fluffy pods that disperse their tiny seeds on the wind. This is a long-lived perennial, so plant it where it can thrive for many years.

A symbol of the Alaska and Yukon region, these brilliant pink blossoms also light up the prairie. The slightly spicy petals can be used to flavor wildflower honey, candy, ice cream, or jelly.
